On
Saturday, May 28, 2005 four Kenyan Vincentians were
ordained to the Priesthood. These
are the first four Vincentian Kenyans to be ordained. They are pioneers. They are the beginning of the
Vincentians (officially called the Congregation of the Mission)
in that country. They are examples of what mission work is all
about. Others go to a new land with the message of the gospel—and
of Saint Vincent—and
their purpose is to establish the Church there so it can stand
on its own. Establishing priests from the country is an essential
step on the way.
A Call for You
In the past, the Association has helped American missionaries in Taiwan or Kenya and
other worldwide missions of the Vincentians. If you would like to make a donation to help
the foreign missions continue their good work, you can do so by contacting the Association.
It is an opportunity for you to answer Christ's call to "make disciples of all nations."
Jesus said to his disciples, "But when the Son of Man comes,
will he find faith on earth?" (Luke 18:8) Vincentian missionaries bring the faith to the
remotest and poorest places of the earth. And you can help them.
